Heaven please send to all mankind

Understanding and peace of mind
                 G            Em   Am7

Please send me someone to love, someone to love

[Bridge]
      Am              D            G        Em
I lay awake night and ponder world troubles
   Am7       D7         G    G7
My answer is always the same
     C                 Cm  G               E7
That unless men put an end to this damable sin
A                      A7        D                D7
Hate will put the world in a flame, (oh) what a shame
G                         G7
Just because I'm in misery
        C                C7
I don't beg for no sympathy
             G              E7     Am7
But, if it's not asking too much
               D7         G      C G G C G                 C   Bb G         
Please send me someone to love,  Please send me someone to love

But, if it's not asking too much
